Product Information

• Name: (S)-3-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-2-hydroxypropionic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: (S)-3-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-2-hydroxypropionic acid is a phenolic compound that is used in the synthesis of streptavidin. It is prepared by reacting p-hydroxybenzoic acid with tyrosol. The ester linkage between the two molecules is formed by an amide reaction with sodium carbonate, followed by solvent removal and purification. The solvents are removed using sodium carbonate, which allows for the formation of an o-benzyl-l-tyrosine ester linkage. This product has a constant boiling point of 177 degrees Celsius at atmospheric pressure and can be used in organic chemistry as a solvent or reagent.
